Nutrient Use Efficiency:
growing more - using less
Australian primary producers have consistently fulfilled the role of supplying the nutrition and fibre required for an expanding population. Today, we face an unprecedented challenge: nourishing a larger population while overcoming reduced land, limited resources, tighter profit margins, and heightened scrutiny. IPF is committed to harnessing our 110 years of expertise in fertilisers, our dedication to scientific advancement and our support for Australian farmers to assist you in this effort.
Australian Farmers…They’re something to Celebrate
Supporting nutrient use efficiency
-
Nitrogen Retention
Nitrogen-based fertilisers are the most widely used fertilisers worldwide. However, nitrogen losses due to volatilisation, denitrification, and leaching impose significant annual costs on Australian farmers. By harnessing the power of IPF's scientific expertise, you can safeguard your nitrogen investments and reduce these costly losses.
-
Humates
Farmers recognise the value of investing in the enhancement of their soil health through the use of humates. This practice has led to improved efficiency in the utilisation of purchased fertilisers. IPF's Trigger introduces a premium humate that can seamlessly integrate into fertiliser blends, further supporting soil health and agricultural productivity.
-
Compounds
The cornerstone of nutrient use efficiency lies in ensuring that each plant within your crop or pasture receives equitable access to the applied nutrients. IPF takes great pride in the trust growers and agronomists have placed in the Granulock brand for their compound nutrient requirements.
